You get a different outlook when you see it up close and personal.
Particularly when it is not just short term visits. 2 years in
east/central southern Africa makes you think.


Hey, tell me what you believe about Mormons.
I am feeling like a chance to kick you in
the balls.


What I believe about Mormons as a whole has nothing to do with THIS.
I have ni idea what makes you think it does.


Mormon, Catholic or Lutheran (or jewish,, muslim, SDA, hindu,nhillist
or buddist, or anything else) makes no difference to me -
I've known and worked with several Mormons over the years, and I
respected them for living their beliefs, even though I didn't agree
with them theologically.

Some of my best friends would describe themselves as "heathen". They
respect me for my beliefs - and none of them are fanatical atheists.
We have "theological" discussions on a fairly regular basis - and they
are never initiated by me. I get asked what I believe - sincere
questions - and we talk.
I'll never make Christians out of them - but God might.

One thing I CANNOT stand is a racist - of any colour - and
particularly one who is too ignorant? to know he is one.
